also, when we travel, we depend so much on women journalists to be there with us helping us open our eyes and ears. about not being paid, i think there is a seismic shift and there is a whole lot of anxiety about getting the job that locks in because there is so much general uncertainty out there. if you possibly can sometimes, try to spend the two weeks or one month in something even if they can't pay you because i know too many people in those two weeks and that month who got the job. it is simply someone seeing what you can do and be willing to come in and do anything. i know there is that uncertainty but i also know that many of the people we see at abc news had a door open that way. about the gang violence, we will take at another time. >> my apologies to all of you did not have a chance to ask a question. we are out of time i want to extend goodbyes to all of the people, all of the women reporters and executives from all over the world who are here tonight. god bless you and continue to do all the work you are doing.

the term they use, of radiation. that's about 67 chest x-rays or the same of 134 cross-country plane trips. in order to get radiation sickness, you need to be exposed to 1,000 millisieverts at once. and for most people, a fatal dose is about five times that. to put this all in perspective, the radiation levels at the scene of the fire of the nuclear power plant in japan reached about 400 millisieverts. meaning you would have had to sit there for about 2 1/2 hours to get sick. but what about the worst case scenario? what if there's a full meltdown? will that reach us here in america? >> even if we had a chernobyl-type accident, the impact on the united states would be minimal. >> reporter: which is why, despite those scary pictures out of japan, the experts are telling us tonight that there is no threat to us here. dan harris, abc news, new york. >>> and when we return, we are going to take you to an inaccessible part of japan and show you how a human chain did so much to help save lives. i've had asthma for 11 years.
